To achieve natural high quality synthesised speech in HMMbased speech synthesis, the effective modelling of complex acoustic and linguistic contexts is critical. Traditional appro...
: Although a database view embodies partial information about the state of the main schema, the state of the view schema is a quotient (and not a subset) of the state of the main s...
We introduce a new solution technique for closed product-form queueing networks that generalizes the Method of Moments (MoM), a recently proposed exact algorithm that is several o...
We address several challenges for applying statistical dialog managers based on Partially Observable Markov Models to real world problems: to deal with large numbers of concepts, ...

We have studied two efficient sampling methods, Langevin and Hessian adapted Metropolis Hastings (MH), applied to a parameter estimation problem of the mathematical model (Lorent...
